Okay, forward slash Black Friday. What's going on, Lions fans, welcome to the Pride of Detroit POD cast.

That is not which podcast.

This is actually Before the Roar.

Welcome to Before the Roar, your preview podcast over at

Pred of Detroit.com, where we take a look at the Lions' upcoming opponent for this week.

Morgan, this week we have the traditional Thanksgiving game where the Lions will be squaring

off against the Green Bay Packers. There is a lot of history, obviously, between these two

franchises. Obviously, the Thanksgiving game is one where the entire nation is going to be watching.

But also, this game has a lot of stakes when it comes down to not only the division race, but also

eventually playoff seating as well. So we're going to talk about everything that the Lions need to do in order to

make sure that they can kind of get a get back game against the Packers, as well as what things they need to be mindful of that the Packers may be trying to do to them, both on the offensive and defense event. But before we get into that, my guy, first of all, how are you? Like, it's been a crazy week. It's Tuesday when we don't really do this on a Wednesday. Like, I'm kind of all over the place right now. Too, man. And like it clicked for me because this is a crazy stretch of days. You have this game obviously. Then we get the Thursday game next week against the Cowboys at home. So there's a bunch of games at home. Someone had asked Dan Campbell about it and he was like, I love it. Like you could tell, he was like, yeah, this is pretty, because they asked him, you know, this is the second time in a row. You've had Thursday, Thursday, you know, coming off Thanksgiving. And it's a lot. So we're rolling with it, moving on after that win against the Giants. And I'm excited. This is a, I like that you said, it's a traditional. this really does feel like a classic game and it's cool now because

there is, you know, there's so much riding on it, right, Miko, in terms of, you know, the NFC North and just playoff seating in general, right?

Yeah, currently the Packers are still second in the division at 7, 3, and 1. They're coming off a pretty

important win for them as well, you know,

beating the Minnesota Vikings 23 to 6.

And that has put the Packers at basically 500 over their last four games.

Morgan, they've lost two games consecutively to both Carolina and Philly,

but I've since got back to their winning ways,

beating both the Giants and Vikings the last couple weeks.
